So, what's happening next week? The big release doesn't arrive until Friday, April 3 in the form of horror epic Resident Evil 3, but we've also got some fun, quirky titles on the way. Let's take a look at all ten games below, courtesy of Major Nelson over at Xbox Wire.
- The Complex (March 31): "After a major bio-weapon attack on London, two scientists find themselves in a locked-down laboratory with time and air running out."
- Shaolin vs Wutang (April 1): "A 1v1 combat game featuring hand-to-hand and weapon combat, great music, and inspired graphics."
- Totally Reliable Delivery Service (April 1): "Buckle up your back brace and fire up the delivery truck, it’s time to deliver!"
- Random Heroes (April 1): "The Earth is being invaded by terrifying aliens! It’s up to you and a bunch of random heroes to save the day and stop the invasion!"
- Snakeybus (April 3): "An absurd arcade-driving game and frantic score-chasing experience where the biggest danger is yourself!"
- Horror of the Deep (April 3): "An immersive first-person horror experience, inspired by Amnesia, and with a strong emphasis on exploration, atmosphere, and mystery."
- HyperParasite (April 3): "A rogue-lite, twin-stick shooter/brawler that never plays the same twice."
- The Curious Expedition (April 3): "Drawing inspiration from the enthusiastic curiosity that have driven humanity to the far corners of the Earth, take part in the glory and wonder, but also the horror and peril that is the constant companion of the explorer"
- Resident Evil 3 (April 3): "Jill Valentine is one of the last remaining people in Raccoon City to witness the atrocities Umbrella performed. To stop her, Umbrella unleashes their ultimate secret weapon, Nemesis!"

Well Snakeybus has me intrigued!
Shaolin vs Wutang is meant to be decent too. Might check that out and whack 36 Chambers on alongside it
Outside of that it's all about Resi 3, of course.
Got Resident Evil 3 collectors edition on pre order via game. I hope it arrives on time. This was always my favourite game of the lot, so I'm hoping they don't screw it up (demo impressions say they've nailed it).
I chose the PS4 version tho since I got the original 20 years ago on PSOne so it kinda felt right. Also I feel old typing that
I am still shocked (and a bit worried) that they RE3 remake is coming out so soon after the excellent RE2 remake. We’ll see.
@KelticDevil
I didn't like what I played in the REmake 3 demo. Definitely a bit concerned.
@Gamer83
I haven’t heard good things about it. It’s having performance issues, which is weird because RE2 didn’t have that issue.
And it feels very similar to RE2. I was actually gaming when RE2 & 3 originally came out, & I always felt that RE3: Nemesis was always the black sheep of the original trilogy. And it reviewed worse than the original two games. I guess we’ll see how it turns out.
@KelticDevil
Code Veronica was actually the next true sequel in the series but an 'exclusive' deal with Sony forced Capcom to keep the numbered game on PS1. It always did feel like it was a bit of a rush job compared to the other games from that era of RE and it was also the most action focused before RE 4 went full steam ahead in that direction.
@Gamer83
I thought Code Veronica came out after RE3? It was even a Dreamcast “exclusive”, although that didn’t last long.
And then Capcom did that exclusive GameCube deal where RE4 was a Nintendo exclusive (along with RE1 remake & RE0), and once again, that didn’t last long.
@KelticDevil
Yeah it came out after 3, but it was the direct sequel to 2 and man was I happy it was on the Dreamcast. That console had a lot of great games but for me CV was the first one I played where I really felt like I was getting a next-gen experience.
@Gamer83
I hear ya. Other than Xbox consoles, the Dreamcast was my favorite console ever. It had so many awesome ideas & quirky games. It was such a shame Sega screwed up so bad with the Sega CD/32X/Saturn fiasco.
And Microsoft helped Sega build the Dreamcast & a lot of people look at it as the precursor to the OG Xbox.
